10. Objectives of the course programme (competences) The goal of the course is for the student to acquire knowledge of new intelligent methodologies and technologies for more natural interaction. Of particular importance is the scientific approach to
problems based on relevant theoretical and experimental research, and following trends in intelligent technologies, cognitive sciences, and paradigms in interactive design.
Upon completion of the course, the student is expected to:
 is familiar with the theoretical and empirical research that forms the basis of the new approaches in
Design of intelligent interactive systems
 is familiar with the techniques and methodologies for the design and implementation of intelligent interactive systems
 has the ability and skills to select the appropriate methods for analysis, design, and
Implementation of an intelligent interactive system according to the problem and domain from
interest
 has the ability to apply advanced technologies and new paradigms for design and
implementation of an intelligent interactive system in selected scenarios, contexts and
application domains
 has the ability to design an evaluation procedure that is appropriate to the context and
the evaluation, with which the intelligent interactive system will be validated at different moments of its development.
11. Course content The course covers content that addresses the selection of the most appropriate intelligent techniques (applied artificial intelligence and machine learning) to support human–computer interaction tailored to the abilities, possibilities, and preferences of an individual or a group of users.
• Intelligent mobile, ubiquitous, and intelligent environments.
• Affective interaction.
• Cognitive and social modeling - modeling and analysis of the behavior of users and user groups
• Multimodal interaction using the latest intelligent technologies from the fields of deep learning, reinforcement learning, and agent-based systems.
• Application domains and case studies (recommendation systems, decision support, assistive systems, multimodal interaction)
• Design of a procedure and scenario for comparing experimental studies and evaluating intelligent interactive systems
• Recommendation systems
• Explainable AI
12. Learning methods Lectures supported by slide presentations, interactive lectures, exercises (using equipment and software packages), teamwork, case studies, guest lecturers, independent preparation and defense of a project assignment and seminar paper, learning in an electronic environment (forums, consultations).
